Would you go for retabulation , has it ever worked?作者: FVPV 时间: 2011-7-13 13:25
I started my CFA journey in December 2007 and passed level 3 in June 2010.
Every 6 months I see this question here. And there is always the same answer: NO.
Nobody never heard of the case when retab improved results.
The only case when its reasonable to go for it is when you are sure that, for example, instead of filling bubbles on answer sheet you crossed them or put dots inside or did whatever, which could have been missed during the automatic scan.
Otherwise just accept it and go for another try.
There is nothing to worry about here - most people fail at least once, some - do it twice or more. It's really difficult and almost everyone who goes into this program is smart, successful and full of ambitions. Still, even in this bunch of talented people 36% pass rate is what we see almost every exam.作者: scr879 时间: 2011-7-13 13:25
Search around on the CFAI's website for the official grading process. They have a very detailed writeup of it. The CFAI leaves no stoned unturned. They are about as thorough as you can be when it comes to checking, rechecking, auditing, etc... the results.

I was considering the same. I took the Level 1 exam in Dec as well.
I 'm in band 10.
The reason I'm considering is because when I tore off the answer sheet, the line didn't tear straight on the perforated line. The answer bubbles were still visible, but I'm not sure how it lined up going into the machine.
I was pretty confident in my answers.
Nobody on AF (out of probably 1,000+ posters) has EVER had a score reversed by retabulation, and people on the cusp of passing always try anyways. If you failed, you failed. Don't waste your $100.作者: smartpants 时间: 2011-7-13 13:25

If I were @Redskins44, I would pay the $100. That is the guy who was 70+ in all but three sections. Give him the 40/60/80 split and he scores a 69. He was probably one question away from passing.
Anyone else is giving the cfai a $100 donation.作者: eagles_dare13 时间: 2011-7-13 13:25

That is still a very generious split. It very well could have been 25/50/75.
